Default Verizon/CDMA Specific question

Please Login to Remove!

Could someone explain to me WHY there is not simultaneous voice/data available on Verizon's network? If this is an actual limitation of CDMA technology, again - the question is "why"? I've always been curious....As much as I love Verizon's network in terms of reliability, its annoying that I suffer without this capability.

EVDO Rev 0 does not have the ability to support simultaneous voice and data.
EVDO Rev A has the ability to support simultaneous voice and data. I believe this is done through VOIP voice streams. I don't think either Sprint or Verizon has this enabled yet. Also, AFAIK the Storm is the only Rev A BlackBerry available.

Verizon will support simultaneous voice and data when they move to LTE and Sprint will do the same when the move to WiMAX as far as I know.
